    Transformer Oil/Diesel in CUCV

    Just be sure that the oil is free of polychlorinated biphenils (PCB's).. This dielectric fluid has been banned since the late 70's. because it is highly toxic.. The flash point of standard mineral transformer oil is 284 degrees F, so I don't know if I would burn this in a diesel..

    Sellable value for a M35A3

    If you did all of the foot work and expense to get it titled and registered in your state then it will be worth more to some buyers. Like I said earlier, it depends in your geography.. In Louisiana, Mississippi Alabama and Texas a nice runing A3 will sell retail for $7 - $9K TOPS. And that is...

    Sellable value for a M35A3

    I guess it dpends where you live.. A local dealer has a nice running A3 on his lot. He started ou asking $7,500 and hasn't sold it in months.. Price is now $7,000... 1991 M35A3 - Ken's ATV I've seen GL auctions getting more than that in some states.. IMO, a fair price for a running A3...

    I took a bunch of pictures during my trailer recovery at Ft. Polk and the lady did not say a thing. Maybe she didn't see me taking them, but I also wasn't hiding the fact..

    A buddy of mine at work has a lot of farm equipment, and I was getting ready to have a nice supply of WMO lined up until I told him my plans. He re-neg'd in the deal once he filtered a batch of WMO and started mixing it 50/50 in his tractors and 1995 dodge farm truck and found that his...

    Powder Coating a M101A1 Frame and Bed?

    I had a set of home made bumpers for my Suzuki Samuray blasted and powdercoated in a flat black textured finish a few years ago for $250. That was me doing ALL of the prep work and they simply blasted and coated. $200 for doing a M101 frame is a steal. By the way here are the bumpers I built..
